Use of Maximum Entropy Modeling in Wildlife Research

Entropy, 2009
Maximum entropy (Maxent) modeling has great potential for identifying distributions and habitat selection of wildlife given its reliance on only presence locations.

Thermodynamic characterisation of covalent ligand binding

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Differential scanning fluorimetry (DSF) is a common and straightforward method to evaluate the thermal stability of proteins and has been heavily used for ligand binding characterisation as well as for screening. One class of compounds that is less typically evaluated by DSF are covalent binders.

Integrating fossil data in ecological niche models to improve predictions of future habitat of Caribbean corals

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecological niche models (ENMs) are used to assess the abiotic preferences of species by linking their occurrences to the environmental conditions in which they live. We developed a fossil‐informed ENM framework that integrates mid‐Holocene and modern occurrences to test niche stability and reconstruct abiotic niche characteristics for four ...

Comparative species distribution model framework for marine conservation and its application to loggerhead turtles in the Mediterranean

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modeling species distributions in dynamic pelagic environments remains challenging, particularly for wide‐ranging and highly mobile species when there is limited guidance on model performance. This limitation constrains the effective use of species distribution models (SDMs) in marine conservation, where robust and transferable predictions are

Predicting Range Shifts in the Distribution of Arctic/Boreal Plant Species Under Climate Change Scenarios

Diversity
Climate warming is anticipated to significantly alter the distribution and composition of plant species in the Arctic, thereby cascading through food webs and affecting both associated fauna and entire ecosystems.

Probabilistic Distribution Modeling of Crosstalk in Multi-Conductor Transmission Lines via Maximum Entropy Method

IEEE Access, 2019
A novel statistical method, referred to as the maximum entropy (MaxEnt) method is proposed in this paper for effective probabilistic modeling of crosstalk in multi-conductor transmission lines (MTLs).

Leveraging urban greenspaces to bolster regional conservation priorities

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
This article demonstrates that urban greenspaces currently excluded from the San Francisco Bay Area's regional conservation plan offer significant, measurable conservation value. We found these overlooked areas host vital biodiversity and critically improve habitat connectivity, highlighting that incorporating urban greenspaces will be key in meeting ...
